Comprehensive Hormone Testing for Women: What Your Bloodwork Reveals


ree

Hormones play a powerful role in nearly every part of a woman’s health — from mood and energy to metabolism, sleep, and reproductive function. But when something feels “off,” it’s not always easy to pinpoint why. That’s where comprehensive hormone testing comes in.

At Holistic Inc. in Charleston, WV, hormone bloodwork helps women identify hidden imbalances and take meaningful steps toward better health and balance.


Why Hormone Testing Matters for Women

Hormone changes don’t only happen during menopause. Stress, diet, aging, and even environmental toxins can throw your hormones out of sync — leading to symptoms like:

  • Fatigue or low energy

  • Unexplained weight gain or loss

  • Mood swings or anxiety

  • Hot flashes or night sweats

  • Irregular periods

  • Brain fog or low libido

Comprehensive HRT bloodwork gives you a full picture of what’s happening inside your body so treatment can be personalized to your needs.

What Hormones Are Tested?

A thorough hormone panel often includes:

  • Estrogen (Estradiol): Regulates menstrual cycles, bone health, and mood. Low estrogen can cause hot flashes, sleep changes, and vaginal dryness.

  • Progesterone: Balances estrogen and supports mood, sleep, and reproductive health. Low progesterone often leads to irritability or irregular cycles.

  • Testosterone: Important for muscle tone, libido, and energy — even in women. Low levels can lead to fatigue and decreased motivation.

  • Thyroid Hormones (TSH, T3, T4): Control metabolism and energy. Thyroid imbalances are common and can mimic menopause symptoms.

  • Cortisol: The stress hormone. Chronic stress can cause elevated cortisol, impacting sleep, weight, and mood.

  • DHEA: A hormone that supports both estrogen and testosterone balance and helps maintain vitality as we age.

What Your Results Can Reveal

Your bloodwork can highlight patterns such as:

  • Low estrogen and progesterone → often seen in perimenopause or menopause

  • High cortisol → signs of stress-related hormonal imbalance

  • Low thyroid function → linked to fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain

  • Low testosterone → can contribute to low libido and mood changes

By identifying these imbalances early, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or lifestyle interventions can restore equilibrium and improve long-term wellness.
